Chapter 990: Ruthless
Gu Wanning seemed to guess what Gu Hai was thinking, raised his eyebrows, and smiled at Gu Hai: "Does the third uncle think that I am too ruthless?"
Gu Hai calmed down and slowly responded: "Your proposal is right. I just didn't expect you to be on the same page as me. ”
This time, it was Gu Wanning's turn to smile dumbly: "It turns out that the third uncle has already made up his mind, but I underestimate the third uncle too much." ”
Gu Hai also raised his eyebrows and smiled, and the slightly proud expressions of the uncle and nephew were the same: "They didn't take our Dingbei Hou Mansion in their eyes, and they didn't take me Gu Hai seriously, of course I want them to see my methods." Otherwise, how can I be qualified to sit firmly in the position of Shangshu. ”
In the final analysis, it was all because Gu Hai was promoted too quickly, which aroused everyone's jealousy. One by one, they were dizzy, forgetting that Gu Hai was also a powerful person, and was instigated by Fu Ge Lao to oppose Gu Hai.
Gu Hai held back his sullenness for a few days, but he couldn't hold it back.
It happened that Gu Guanning was returning to Ning, and before he started, he talked to Gu Guanning first.
"The third uncle just does it, no need to worry. Gu Guanning said lightly: "Aren't they all hot-eyed third uncles have the support of the queen? This time, I will really support the third uncle." No matter what mistakes go wrong, I will bear it for the third uncle. ”
The tone is indifferent, but it is full of strong confidence and domineering.
This is the style of a dignified queen!
Gu Hai felt comfortable in his heart and laughed: "It's good that you know about this matter." There is no need for support. I'm going to do it, and I'll make it right, and I'll never fall into the driver's seat. ”
As an official in the DPRK and the Central Committee, especially in such an important department as the Ministry of Officials, who can guarantee that he is innocent and clean? As long as he wants to investigate, he can always find out that some people are corrupt and bribe-staking and abuse their power for personal gain.
Of course, Gu Wanning could trust Gu Hai, and laughed when he heard this: "Since the third uncle is so confident, it is inconvenient for me to interfere too much." ”
"That's it. Gu Hai said half-jokingly: "You can be your queen in the middle palace with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about me." Our Gu family is your solid backing and dependence. ”
A warm current surged in Gu Wanning's heart.
How lucky she is to have such a family!
……
After discussing the important things, Gu Haicai asked, "You left me down just now, do you have something important to tell me?"
Gu Wanning nodded and told Ji Tong's matter: "...... I have to explain this matter to the third uncle. ”
Gu Hai was different from the kind-hearted Mrs. Tai, and after hearing this, he said in the first sentence: "If he does anything to be sorry for the Gu family in the future, these secret guards will immediately take it back." ”
Gu Wanning looked at Gu Hai deeply: "Third Uncle can't believe Ah Yan?"
Gu Hai replied lightly: "People's hearts are fickle. I can't trust anyone but you. ”
Gu Wanning was dumbfounded for a moment, and laughed a little helplessly: "What the third uncle said is not unreasonable. Don't worry, if Ah Yan's mind changes, I won't be the first to spare him without the third uncle's action!"
Gu Hai's eyes flashed and he looked over: "Over the years, he has been cautious and has never done anything out of the ordinary. If he continues to hide from people, the old affairs of the Dingbei Hou Mansion will not be mentioned again and again. ”
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
For Gu Hai, sparing Shen Jinyan's life was already extraordinarily generous to Gu Wanning's face. It is absolutely impossible for him to change his opinion of Shen Jinyan.
Gu Wanning couldn't say that Gu Hai was selfish.
Shen Jinyan's existence is a shame that the Gu family can never wash away. From Gu Hai's standpoint, he never wanted Shen Jinyan to open any kind hall, let alone show him in front of others.
Now Gu Hai has made concessions and compromises, all for the sake of Gu Wanning's face.
"Third uncle, I know you're not very comfortable in your heart. Gu Wanning lowered his voice and said softly: "However, Ah Yan is a living person, with thoughts, opinions and feelings, I can't let him hide in the corner forever." ”
"He consulted me before opening the church. It was only with my approval that I dared to take this step. ”
He used the Gu family to make the name of Shantang, hoping to atone for the mistakes of his birth with his own strength. His birth was Shen Meijun's fault and Shen Qian's fault. What's wrong with him?"
Gu Hai was silent.
But in his eyes, there was clearly a trace of disapproval.
Gu Wanning said sincerely: "Ah Yan is my younger brother, I will not abandon him." However, I know that my surname is Gu, and no matter what happens, I will always put the Gu family before Ah Yan. So, is the third uncle satisfied?"
The third uncle was barely satisfied, nodded and said, "You act in your own way, I won't stop you if you want to do anything." ”
finally persuaded Gu Hai.
Gu Wanning breathed a sigh of relief slightly.
……
In the afternoon, Gu Guanning led the three sisters and brothers to leave the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
Gu Jinxing personally led the guards and escorted Gu Wanning back to the palace.
When they arrived outside the palace gate, Gu Jinxing and more than 100 guards stopped. Gu Guanning lifted the curtain and waved goodbye to Gu Jinxing. Gillian, Ayi, and Achun leaned their three heads to the window together and said goodbye in unison.
Gu Jinxing smiled dumbly, waved at the three children, and then rode away.
Gu Wanning lowered the curtain of the carriage, and the carriage slowly entered the palace.
As soon as the mother and son entered the Jiaofang Palace, before they could settle down, the Empress Dowager Min came in a hurry. After meeting, it was too late to ask Gu Wanning how he was doing at his parents' house, so he hugged the children first. The heart and liver baby meat shouted, and the meat was numb.
Gu Wanning silently shook off the goosebumps on the ground.
When the children leave the palace, it will only add up to more than a day. When I arrived at the Empress Dowager Min, it was quite a bit like not seeing each other for a day.
Empress Dowager Min had enough of hurting a few children, so she raised her head contentedly and asked Gu Guanning with a smile: "Guanning, is Mrs. Tai in good health?"
Mrs. Tai has a noble character, wisdom and shrewdness. Empress Dowager Min has always respected her.
Gu Guanning replied with a smile: "Grandmother eats and sleeps well, and her health is quite good. My grandmother was pleasantly surprised. These days have been very happy. ”
Empress Dowager Min stretched her brows and smiled: "That's good." As a queen, it is indeed not as convenient as in the past to go out of the palace. However, there is nothing wrong with returning to Ning once a year. If you really miss Mrs. Tai, it is the same to summon Mrs. Tai into the palace to accompany you. ”
Gu Wanning smiled and hummed.
In the past, she couldn't bear to let Mrs. Tai run around, and she never summoned Mrs. Tai into the palace. Now it seems that Mrs. Tai's body is quite tough. I enter the palace every few months, and it's not a big deal to think about it.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, and a palace maid came to report quickly.
Duchess Chengen handed over the post to Cining Palace, asking for peace to Empress Dowager Min.
Gu Guanning never said the rights and wrongs of the Min family in front of the Empress Dowager Min, and was noncommittal.
Empress Dowager Min frowned slightly, and her voice was quite cold: "If you pass on the words of the mourning family, it will be said that the mourning family has been unwell recently, and they should recuperate." So that she doesn't have to go into the palace to say goodbye. ”
